I came across an entire carton of MongoDB coffee mugs at the thrift store a few years ago. Excess merch... My favorite swag was an Intel spaceman/clean suit guy doll - but he's stuffed in a box in the shed somewhere. I had a really nice Timbuk2 laptop backpack with some big corp's logo on it. Super functional and well made bag but I never used it because I don't like wearing/displaying logos in general.

Oh yeah, the bunny people. Andy Grove was apparently really big on those at one point. Think I have one in my office. I either have another one someplace or I tossed it. I admit I have so much merchandise from over the years from my company and others. I've dumped a lot but some I really like and use regularly.

> I never used it because I don't like wearing/displaying logos in general I have a roll of gaffer tape - covers the logos. It is unironically almost a brand of its own now

  I like seeing that on TV shows and the like where someone is wearing clothing that isn't one of the sponsors, etc. I also had a zip-up sweater I really liked, but wasn't in to the brand, so I sewed another embroidered patch over the branding.
